3.75/5 rDev -6.7%
look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 4 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5
Poured a clear orange-gold with a light white head. Moderate retention and minimal lacing.
Aroma of cloves, banana skin, light spices, and flowery hops. Slight sting of alcohol.
Light, sweet fruity taste (pears, bananas) mixed with floral hops, followed by spiciness and alcohol. Light clean hop bitterness at the end. Aftertaste of grain husk and alcohol.
Medium light body with moderate carbonation and a dry finish.
The alcoholic qualities limit the drinkability for me, but otherwise it is a nice brew.

From a 2L growler fill at the brewery. Golden yellow with a small white head. Clear. Aroma is banana and bubblegum with a little spice. Malty with more of the bubblegum fruitiness. Clean and dry with a little more fruit in the finish. Some alcohol in there. Balanced and drinkable.

look: 3.75 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 4
Traded for a bottle or two of this many years ago, I believe this is the 2004 release.
Appearance - a slight haze to this tangerine/gold brew. A thin finger of white bubbles away fairly quickly but does manage to keep a scant cover for a while.
Aroma - sweet caramel and orange, light yeast and phenols.
Taste - starts out a bit pilsnery, but sweeter in the malts.Obviously, no bite in the hops at all some nine years later, yet the dryness of the style allows for good balance anyway. The yeast and phenols cut the sugar quite well, and the aftertaste has a really nice level of throat and belly warming. The end is easy, pleasant, warm, very nice.
Mouthfeel - crisp, thin, medium-bodied.
Overall - definitely aged longer than the recommended max of six months, but it tastes super. As a lighter tripel on the abv side,you should be so lucky to even have the option for a second or third of these in one sitting. Here's to Sawyer, may we exhibit similar courage when we need it most.

Purchased from Stone @WinterStorm 2012
Shared with GuruDel
App- Freshly squeezed orange juice mixed with some yellow and golds. A bit unfiltered and a bit cloudy. No real head formed but had a nice ring of bubbles. Very small amount of cling towards the end.
Smell- Standard triple notes, but a bit faded. The yeast is still there with a small backing citrus note.
Taste- It was a pretty good triple. I just dont think its aging all that well. I am glad I got to try it as I love the style, but its a bit sweet with a softer yeast note. Has a certain flavor I can't put my finger on. The flavors are seeming to me at least of pullling apart a bit.
Mouth- A lighter medium body with a low-medium carbonation. Seemed a bit sweet on the finish with a little too much orange/lemon juice flavors.
Drink- I love the cause that this supports. I would gladly buy this beer again. It was good. I think I am just being nitpicky about it because its Stone and I love what they do.

look: 4 | smell: 2.5 | taste: 2 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 2
A: The beer pours a clear golden orange color with a tall white head.
S: Reeks of sugar. Cloying as any beer I've smelled with over ripe bananas and spices being the only break from the sugar (not that they really help much). Bubblegum and cotton candy only add to the problem.
T: This is so sweet, it's almost got a grainy texture to it. Sugar, sugar, and more sugar with cotton candy, bubblegum, and overly ripe fruits such as bananas and apples. A strong spice character of clove that is also unpleasant.
M: Syrupy with medium carbonation.
O: Unenjoyable on all fronts. I know it's sort of a dick move to bash this beer considering its purpose, but it's just not good.

Picked up a bottle of this one at the brewery, as I had never heard of it and it was for a very good cause. That said, this one poured a dark golden color with a billowy white head. Aromas of candi sugar, yeast, clove and lemon zest. On the palate, this one is light to medium bodied, with flavors of candi sugar, yeast and Belgian spice.

Draft service into a half-pint goblet at Stone Bistro.
A: Clear, medium golden color with one finger of diminishing white foam head. No lacing remains on the glass.
S: Light toast is obscured somewhat by bright esters, wild mint, and fusel alcohols that impart occasional whiffs of solvent and urea.
T: Begins barely off-dry, with lightly toasted malt, delicate herbs, and some snappy anise that lends an edge. The trend is toward increasing dryness, becoming more clean, with a burst of bright apples and pears in the middle. It finishes with restrained bitterness amidst more herbaceous spice. Alcohol is occasionally detected, adding a spirituous quality that is consistent with the style (but seems inconsistent with the mildness of the other flavors found here.)
M: Thin to medium viscosity, feels more substantial on the palate than it tastes, with moderate carbonation.
D: An interesting take on the abbey tripel style--more like a tripel lite--whose sensory qualities come totally unexpected in a beer from Stone. It drinks easily enough, and leans toward the lower end of the abv range for the style, but flavors seem muted and lacking interest compared to other beers of the style. In fact, this beer may be one of Stone's mildest, tasting less assertive than the pale ale. Definitely rare and probably over-rated, Sawyer's triple is the least likely beer to be judged a Stone brew in a blind tasting.

On tap at Stone Winter Storm 2011. Advertised as the last keg of Sawyer's Tripel! Seems to me like Stone has some explaining to do to Sawyer's family.
A: Transparent golden with a white head.
S: Sweet bready malt with a prodigious amount of banana and a little clove. A touch of honey is noticeable, as are alcohol and coriander. Quite aromatic, with notes of orange and dried mango.
T: Slightly spicy up front with notes of clove and white pepper. Coriander makes a strong appearance, as does banana. Malt is bready and moderately sweet with a slight sugary note. Alcohol is noticeable but not out of line. Fruit is reminiscent of orange, melon, and mango. Finish is dry.
M: Medium body with upper medium carbonation. Mouthfeel is dry, creamy, and sticky.
Overall: Sort of a cross between a Wit, Hefeweizen, and a Tripel, but a good beer and enjoyable.

I bought two of these at the brewery about 6 months ago after our tour guide told us Sawyer's story. I had one soon after, and now the second one is poured into my Chimay chalice. Reading the story on the bottle again, and drinking this tasty tripel really makes me wish I had purchased more at the time.
A: Golden orange hue. Minimal head and lacing to speak of.
S: A very fragrant brew. Cloves and faint banana nut sweetness on the nose with a floral alcohol backbone.
T: I can tell this is a Stone brew right off the bat (hop character maybe?), but it is definitely true to the Belgian tripel style (with a SoCal touch). The malt sweetness sits on the tongue, but the yeast (i think) gives a alcohol bitterness that spreads around the whole mouth and makes the deliciousness stay for a while. Soooo yummy.
M: Medium-light body with alcohol hotness. Carbonation takes a back seat here, but still lets you know it's there.
D: I could go for another bomber. Especially because I'm a sucker for consuming things of which the proceeds go to a good cause. Fight ALD!!!

22oz. bottle poured into a tulip. Thanks to cjacobsen for sharing this one!
(A)- Pours a cloudy orange hue. Produced a light layer of white foam before dissipating. Minimal lacing.
(S)- Tons of clove and banana. Hints of lemon rind as well. Lightly earthy and dry.
(T)- Similar to the smell. Lots of wheat-like lemon and banana. Slightly dry and earthy.
(M)- A good carbonation level and balance. Crisp and earthy with good fruits.
(D)- A good triple. Has that crispness I like about the style with a good body and flavor profile.

Thanks to FtownThrowDown for hooking me up with this one.
Opaque orange with a slight haze to it. Little to almost no head.
Smelled of banana, citrus and sweetness.
The taste was a lot like the smell. Simple and cut to the point. The white Belgian candi sugar gave it enough sweetness but wasn't overpowering. It's a light but full bodied brew with some slight lemon or orange peel that comes around as the beer warms. Had a bit of a wheat character to it.
It was very smooth with no bite, which wasn't a surprise seeing the head was quite minimal. It's a really well balanced beer.
It's a good triple that isn't really sweet like some that I've had. Lighter and fruitier than most. This beer doesn't really fall into the usual Stone style of ales that they produce, but its a nice offset brew that I am glad I had the chance to try.

Picked this bottle up last year this time when I toured the brewery. 22oz bottle poured into a tulip. Appearance is a nice golden hue, but there is little to no carbonation which is slightly disappointing. Aroma is mostly banana and clove. Mouthfeel is tart and sharp on the tongue. Body is fairly smooth and taste is mostly banana and some mild spice. I love the premise of this beer and the fact that it is for charity, however its not an outstanding tripel. Which I find surprising considering the history that Stone has brewing Belgians.

A solid pour into my 25cl tulip glass produces an almost three-finger thick, pale tan colored head. The beer is a dark gold / copper color that shows a faintly hazed, rich gold hue when held up to the light. The aroma smells of creamy fruit somehow, it reminds me of sugar sweetened pears, some melon like notes, lots of cotton candy, some lightly musty phenolics, a touch of clove towards the finish, perhaps a touch of over-ripe almost rotting fruit, accentuating honey-like malt and a touch of cracker like grain. The aroma is really over the top fruit / sugary smelling, not bad, but a bit unbalanced.
Sweet tasting and it carries through from the aroma that sugary, fruity, somehow creamy note. This is quite floral (the aroma is too, I just didn't associate it until after tasting the beer for the first time) and reminds me of some big, sweet, but sort of stinky tropical flower. Fruit flavors of pear, floral melon, fake-fruit flavored cotton candy, sugar laden sweet pale malt and some honey-like notes are here. The beer finishes with a touch of herbal, perhaps hop derived character that is quite subtle and there is only a touch of hop bitterness here. The finish also has quite a bit of clove character that is hiding just underneath the up front sweet fruit flavors. This hits the body of a Tripel just about on the nose, the sweetness makes it seem a bit richer than it actually is, but it is quite quaffable for its strength.
Interesting, it severely lacks the complexity, both yeast and malt derived, that should be part of a really good Tripel. On the other hand this isn't half bad, and given that Stone doesn't really do Belgian Styles, is about what I was expecting. I am quite happy to be drinking this beer though, and you certainly have to salute the cause.

T: drinks like a tripel contrary to what the smell indicates, some yeast, apricot, and sweet malts round out the flavors.

A - Pours a nice honey color with about one finger of head that dissipates into a thing layer. Moderate lacing.
S - Relatively mild in aroma, bread, pear, banana, and spice.
T - On contrary to the mild aroma the taste is huge and delicious. Fruits are pear and banana as with the aroma, sweet malts, nice spice to the finish that is a little prickly on the tongue, and also just the right amount of bitterness to round it out.
M - Medium in body, very crisp and refreshing, reel melts in the mouth nicely.
D - Really enjoyable, as I would expect from the guys at Stone and for a great cause!

A- Pours a clear straw/gold color with 2 fingers of white head that leaves lacing throughout my glass.
S- Wow, loads of scents starting with a spiced apple and spiced pear followed by great light sweet malt scents and of course the belgian bready yeast... This reminded me of my trips I used to take to Julian with my parents and brothers as a child, we would always go up there for some fresh apple pie and hot cider...
T- Not as much as the smell, but still great. You pick up on the apple/pear, spices, light sweet malt and loads of bready yeast with a nice crisp finish.
M- Nice slightly medium body with ample carbonation that is quite smooth and doesn't attack the tounge.
D- Took me back to my youth growing up, had no problem drinking this 22 oz. beer and ordering another at Stone, also had no problem throwing down $9 per bomber with 100% going to charity.

Poured from a bomber into my arrogant bastard pint glass, a golden slightly hazy color to the body, barely any head on this brew at all with a small amount of carbonation reaching the surface.
The smell on this brew is fresh hops, almost but not quite citrus, and a sweet malt forward honeyed tingle. Smells a lot like hawaiin sweetbread to me, dense and delicious.
The flavor has some spiciness to it but on the whole was actually quite unimpressive I thought, including the mouthfeel in that I was suprised at how thin and bland it tasted and felt. The hawaiin sweetbread smell turned more towards a biscuit flavor that didn't impart too much sweetness and left me desiring a bit more, The hops are there though, i mean seriously it is a stone brew so you really can't go wrong.

Bottle shared by Lee - thanks!
Pours a crystal clear gold color with a one-finger white head. The head recedes into a thin layer on top leaving solid lacing.
Smells of ripe pears with good amounts of robust sweet malts with a hint of biscuit. Also present are mild amounts of indistinct spices lurking in the background.
Tastes similar to how it smells. Smooth, sweet malt flavors kick things off with very light hints of breadiness. Coming in shortly thereafter are good amounts of light fruits - mostly pears but also mild amounts of bruised bananas. Rounding things out is a light spiciness that carries through to a crisp ending on the sweet side of things.
Mouthfeel is good. It's got a nice thickness with smooth carbonation.
Drinkability is also good. I finished my glass without a problem and could have another.
Overall this was a very solid tripel that didn't get overly sweet with a bit of age on it. Worth a shot.

Poured into a Stone tulip. A slightly hazy honey gold. A head of white falls quickly to a thin ring. No lace.
Aroma is wonderfully bready and spiced. Fruity. Nothing hinting at hops. Flavor is nicely sweet with a strong spice character. Peppery in a way, which is bolstered by a understated alcohol heat. A very light bitterness, just enough to balance. Finish is spicy with a little heat. A nice combination - lightness of carbonation, drying alcohol, residual sweetness. Overall moderate to light brew.

Thanks to seanboley for sharing this 22oz. bomber on 3/18/10.
A - Poured a clear golden body with sparse carbonation and a minimal white head that reduced to a patchy film and thin ring of retention.
S - Initial aroma is very floral and sweet with hints of rose petals, candi sugar and sweet berries.
T - Lots of sweet, fruity character right from the get-go suggesting fleshy tree fruit akin to apples and pears. A slightly spicy presence is also apparent in the middle, followed by floral notes reminiscent of rose and lavender. While a moderate alcohol warmth is apparent, the flavor is quite sweet overall... perhaps even a bit too sweet.
M - Medium bodied with a very syrupy texture. Finishes dry with a lot of residual sweetness and a hint of spicy heat on the palate.
D - Pretty tasty Belgian-style Tripel overall, although I found it to be a bit on the sweet side... kind of like a Tripel doused with liquid sugar.

Split amongst friends at a recent gathering. Thanks goes out to Swimsum for bringing this treat!
Poured into a snifter.
Appearance: Cloudy, honey-colored body with a thin, white, foamy halo on top. No lacing. Pretty weak retention. Meh.
Smell: Warm apple pie, overripe banana, honey, clove, and maybe even cinnamon. Lots of candy-like sweetness in here. Very fun to quaff.
Taste: Dough, clove, leafy hops, and banana, with a touch of sourness/funk from the Belgian yeast. Not as exciting or deep as I had hoped. Pretty good overall; mellow.
Mouthfeel: Actively carbonated with tiny, soft bubbles. Medium-bodied and very dry. Nice amount of mouth-numbing.
Drinkability: Other than the smell, this was a very forgettable tripel. With that said, Sawyer's is still a solid beer. I probably won't buy it again, but I wouldn't mind drinking it.

Consumed Feb 7th, 2010 at Stone World Bistro.
Mostly clear light gold, almost lemony yellow. Minimal head, slight lacing. No discernable carbonation activity in glass.
Floral, perfumey aroma.
Flavor follows nose, mostly. Slight citric lemon zest, some soft yeast. No bitterness to speak of. A shame, since there is nothing to really offset the sweetness that borders on cloying. Flavor was not as complex or strong as other reviewers have noted.
Mouthfeel is unremarkable.
Not especially drinkable as it's just too sweet. This may have finally passed its prime.

It's not exactly where you might expect to find an example of public school success:
The campus is in a former flower mart, across the street from the Greyhound station and a short walk from skid row in an industrial area of downtown Los Angeles.
But inside the Para Los Niños Charter School, children defined by disadvantage are proving skeptics wrong.
- Bio | E-mail | Recent columns
I paid a visit to the school last month, after I'd mentioned it in a column about an effort by parents in nearby South Park to create a new Metro Charter school for children living in the upscale neighborhoods near LA Live downtown.
Some of those parents seem to have written off nearby Para Los Niños; it's too poor, too Latino, too linguistically deprived to offer their children enough of a challenge. They are business owners, architects, technology creators, accountants — not elitists, just upscale high-achievers worried that their dreams and the school's aspirations wouldn't be a good fit.
Those are the kinds of concerns on many middle-class minds. Para Los Niños is a magnified version of a city school system that gets less diverse and more economically challenged with every passing year.
Of the 410 students on Para Los Ninos' elementary campus, 99% are Latino and 96% hail from low-income families. More than two-thirds of the students are not fluent in English.
But the school is proving that demographics are not destiny.
Its test scores are on par with many suburban public schools. And its curriculum relies on the sort of child-centered approach favored by progressive private schools with five-figure tuition.
Admission is by lottery, and the school has twice as many applications as open spots some years. Most students live in the garment district, but others come from as far away as Lennox and Long Beach.
"If you had our parents in a room and asked how many want their kids to go to college, 100% would raise their hands," Principal Titus Campos told me.
Still, Campos knows that the school's student-body profile turns some parents off. "We hear it all the time," he said.
When they try to recruit in other neighborhoods to diversify enrollment, "the question asked most is 'Where do the children come from? Are they all Latino?'"
Does that matter?, I asked sixth-grader Ron Bellamy. He's biracial but looks black and didn't speak Spanish when he came to Para Los Niños four years ago.
"It was perplexing at first," Ron admitted. "But there was always somebody around to translate." Most of his classmates spoke both Spanish and English. Instruction after second grade is in English only.
What mattered most to Ron was not skin color or language but the well-stocked library, lively music classes and elaborate art projects, he said. "My other school didn't have any of that."
What would he say to parents worried that their non-Latino children wouldn't fit? "They'd get along just like all of us. We don't put people in groups," he said. "We don't judge by race."
Social issues are part of the calculus that parents use to choose. But what happens in the classroom is what matters most. And the reality of Para Los Niños seems to me surprisingly close to the prospective Metro Charter's goals:
The focus is on learning by doing and fostering personal growth. Teachers aren't required to "teach to the test" but to reward curiosity and nurture creative thinking.
And the school is beautiful inside, with student collaborations — giant murals, sculptures and collages — lining the hallways. It looks more like a hipster art museum than an elementary campus with skid row roots.
The charter was launched in 2002 by Para Los Niños, a 30-year-old nonprofit that pioneered social service programs for neglected children whose homeless parents were trapped by economics on skid row.
The neighborhood is students' laboratory and their lives the canvas for their discoveries. They take city buses to Disney Concert Hall, hike historic Sixth Street Bridge, study the architecture of Union Station and the history of Little Tokyo.
The school has an artist-in-residence and a team of visiting architects. Students practice math by designing their own playground, study anatomy by constructing a "human" body, learn about the ocean by creating an image out of glass beads, chicken wire and fabric scraps.
It may not be glamorous or high-tech, but the students I met and projects I saw make me believe it works.
My column on the campaign for a new Metro Charter drew applause for parents' efforts to create a downtown school that newcomers can shape through high standards.
But it also drew complaints about "boutique charters" that promote isolation and shortchange "impoverished children of color."
Para Los Niños Charter shows the choice is not so stark.
By using art as a forum for the study of math, science and history, Para Los Niños keeps its students from falling behind while they are still learning English.
That embodies the promise of the tax-funded charter movement: allowing unconventional schools to experiment in ways that will ultimately offer public school systems road-tested measures for raising student achievement.
Para Los Niños Charter works because it brings parents into the process, trusts its team to innovate and isn't hamstrung by district rigidity or by union rules. Teachers create their own lesson plans and can go where students' interests lead; the cafeteria ladies who serve the lunches also clean the tables after students eat.
And the principal is not above mopping up a sick child's vomit, or afraid to receive a second-grader's hug.
"The focus here," Campos said, "is on everybody doing whatever it takes to meet the children's needs."
That may not make it right for every family, but it does make the campus a model of what a charter should be:
Not just a refuge for students fleeing unsafe, uncomfortable or underachieving schools, but a testing ground for new ways of teaching that broaden children's possibilities.

Seadrill orders two new ultra-deepwater drillships for delivery in 2014
Monday, Feb 27, 2012Seadrill has in the last year seen a surge in long-term demand for tender rigs and modern ultra-deepwater drilling rigs. The increased demand for ultra-deepwater rigs has been driven by high oil prices and significant exploration successes in both new as well as established deepwater regions leading to a ramp-up in drilling programs. The growth in rig demand has been particularly strong in the US, East and West Africa regions. In addition to oil price and exploration successes, the industry's focus on safety following the Macondo accident, has supported demand for higher specification rigs as well as leading to increased drilling time per well.
Based on these developments and analysis of the rig market, Seadrill has concluded that it is highly likely that lack of sufficient rig availability in the deepwater market will become a key bottleneck until significant new drilling capacity is added. If oil prices remain at present levels, this tight supply demand balance will force oil companies to postpone field developments with negative impact on the net present value of these discoveries.
Seadrill is of the opinion that the present and foreseeable developments represent a unique investment opportunity. In order to benefit from this opportunity, Seadrill is currently in discussions with several shipyards to further increase the Company's rig availability in 2014 and thereafter. As a first step, Seadrill has entered into turnkey contracts to build two new ultra-deepwater drillships at Samsung in South Korea. The construction of the drillships is scheduled for completion in the second and third quarter 2014. Total project price per drillship is estimated to be under US$600 million, which includes a turnkey contract with the yard, project management, drilling and handling tools, spares, capitalized interest and operations preparations. Seadrill has also a fixed price option to order an additional drillship for delivery in 2014.
The drillships are of the same design as the three previous dual derrick drillships that Seadrill ordered at Samsung late 2010 and early 2011, with increased water depth, technical capabilities and accommodation capacities. These dynamic positioning drillships will have a hook load capability of 1,250 tons and a water depth capacity of up to 12,000 feet targeting operations in areas such as the Gulf of Mexico, Brazil as well as West and East Africa. In addition, these units will be outfitted with seven ram configuration of the Blow out Preventer (BOP) stack and with storing and handling capacity for a second BOP.

"He did have tire tracks on his legs, so I believe he was run over on his legs," says Anthony Wright.
Anthony wright is in disbelief and extremely worried about his four-year-old brother Andre.
The video shows Andre with his 14-year-old sister Marie at the intersection of Germantown and Seymour Street. It appears Andre broke away from his sister and ran out into the street as the SUV turned the corner and hit him.
But it doesn't end there. The driver gets out, takes a look, and then gets back in the car and takes off.
It's painful for the entire family to see, but Anthony says it's especially painful for his mother.
"It's really hard for my mother right now. We still constantly struggle with different things as a family, but for this to happen just adds on," he says.
Police say it happened around 4:30 Thursday afternoon. Andre was with his sister Marie walking to a neighborhood store. They were in the crosswalk when Andre was hit. Anthony got the frantic call from his sister.
"I take off down the street and there I see the majority of the neighbors and everybody else coming out to his attention," Anthony recalls.
Anthony doesn't know how anyone could hit a person, let alone a child, and leave them laying on the ground, hurt.
"Just to think of the mindset that the person has or whatever is going through his head right now I completely wish they turn themselves in," says Anthony.
Police hope this driver will just turn himself in, so they can figure out exactly what happened.
Flames are tearing through a South Jersey forest right now, and this wildfire is only expected to grow.

- Adrian Burde
Adrian Burde (pronounced bur-DAY) enters his eighth season with the Florida gymnastics program in the fall of 2013. He coaches vault and tumbling, as well as aids in recruiting and team conditioning.
Burde has coached vault and tumbling for the Gators since 2011. A Gator has claimed the two of the last three NCAA vault titles (Marissa King/2011 and Kytra Hunter/2012). Florida has also taken Southeastern Conference event titles each of the last three seasons (Ashanée Dickerson, 2011 floor exercise; Hunter, 2012 vault, 2013 floor; Bridget Sloan, 2013 floor).
Florida led all teams in the last three seasons with seven advancing to the NCAA floor exercise final and UF's total of seven in NCAA vault finals is the second-highest during that span. The Gators' floor total of 49.725 in 2013 Super Six action set the NCAA Championships' event record. Florida has ranked as the nation's No. 1 vault team for 25 of the last 34 ranking periods (spanning to 2011 season) and was the top-ranked floor team for the entire 2011 season.
Burde coached the Gator uneven bar performers when he joined the program and his impact was evident early. The 2007 Gators opened the season with the team's then third-highest uneven bars team total ever of 49.575 at the Super Six Challenge. The UF bar record was reset to 49.70 versus Kentucky on Feb. 16. The Gators held the No. 1 position in the national bar rankings for the final nine weeks of the regular season. Florida was again among the national uneven bars leaders in Burde's second season. Florida's total of 49.625 set in the Gators' Link to Pink meet was the nation's highest uneven bars total of the 2008 season and ranks third all-time for the Gators. In 2009, Florida stood among the top three for nine weeks in the national bar rankings. Two Gators advanced to the 2009 NCAA bar final, with then sophomore Alicia Goodwin sharing third overall – matching the second-highest UF bar finish in the program's history. All-America honors were earned by three Gator bar performers in 2010, with two advancing to the event final.
His peers recognized Burde as the 2007 National Association of Collegiate Gymnastics Coaches for Women (NACGC) Southeast Region Assistant Coach of the Year. In 2011 and again in 2013, he shared the NACGC Southeast Region Assistant Coach of the Year honor with fellow Gator assistant Robert Ladanyi.
Burde joined UF in June of 2006 after working as an assistant coach at the University of Nebraska since 2001. At Nebraska, he served as the vault and floor coach and conditioning coordinator. While there, he was named the 2003 National Assistant Coach of the Year by the NACGC and the 2003 South Central Region Assistant Coach of the Year.
At Nebraska, Burde helped lead the Cornhuskers to four NCAA Super Six team finals (2002, '03, '05, '06). He saw NU athletes earn 19 All-America honors in the floor and vault events. It was at Nebraska that Burde coached Canadian Richelle Simpson, the 2003 NCAA all-around and floor exercise champion. He served as her coach at the 2003 World Championships in Anaheim, Calif., and the 2003 Pan American Games. Burde and UF Head Coach Rhonda Faehn both were members of the Nebraska coaching staff for the 2002 season.
Prior to working at Nebraska, Burde coached the girl's Level 10 and International Elite programs for the Bart Conner Gymnastics Academy in Norman, Okla. There, he coached U.S. National Team members Larissa Stewart and Lori Wynn.
Burde began his coaching career in his native Romania in 1994, where he was a Junior National team coach until 1999. He coached the Romanian Junior National Team with current UF Assistant Coach Robert Ladanyi. The two have known each other since their competitive gymnastic days.
Burde's international coaching experience is a great benefit to the Gators. He coached Romanian Alexandra Eremia from 1997-99, who later was a member of the 2004 Olympic gold medal team and was awarded the bronze medal on the balance beam. Burde also coached Florica Leonida during the same time, who along with Eremia, earned a team silver medal at the 2003 World Championships.
Burde was a member of the Romanian Junior National Team from 1988 to 1992. He joined the French club team Aix les Bains in 1992 and captured the all-around title at the 1994 French national meet. While competing, Burde also helped coach younger gymnasts at the club.
Burde is a 1996 graduate of the Romanian National School of Coaching, where he received a degree in International High Level Gymnastics.
He married the former Darcie Lee in the summer of 2007. They welcomed Isabella to their family in August of 2012.

Garnet Hill Down-Alternative Comforter 20 20
Warm and Cozy! I love this comforter! It is warm and squishy. Its great to sleep under and nice to lounge on top of too. It has corner ties to hold your cover in place. (A few ties along the edges of the comforter and cover too would be a great thing to have too.) There are no stray feathers to deal with and no sneezing either! March 12, 2014
Soft, light and warm - great value! Purchased this comforter after dealing for years with an older comforter constantly shedding feathers. This one is almost as light weight as the down and just as warm - a winner. February 11, 2014
Excellent option We have very much enjoyed this purchase. We have down comforters and I am not sure we need them in the future based on how this one feels and looks. January 21, 2014
Next Best Thing to Down I recently purchased this and 2 down-alternative pillows for my daughter, who normally will use nothing but high quality down comforters. She has rescued an adorable little dog within the last few weeks - who is allergic to feathers - so I was hoping this down-alternative would live up to both of their expectations of comfort - and it has! They both stay snuggly warm. Yip - Yip - Yippeee!!! January 20, 2014
Down Alternative Comforter I guess I should have washed it first. There is fuzz everywhere in my bedroom but since it is a king - I will have to go to the laundry mat to wash it. It is definitely warmer than I was expecting. January 20, 2014
Sleeping on a Cloud Love this down alternative comforter. High quality, soft and warm. January 17, 2014

Is this comforter "noisy?"
I recently bought a down-alternative comforter from a different company & it is noisy/crinkly, even after washing. I am hoping to find a quiet comforter for my daughter. Would you consider this comforter quiet or noisy?
1 year, 6 months ago
Answer:Interesting question! I have also bought a down-alternative comforter elsewhere, and found the cover material accumulated, and retained, an unacceptable level of wrinkling; and I remember that I could hear it making a sort of scratchy sound when the material was moved around-- weird. We returned that comforter without ever sleeping under it.
We've been sleeping under our Garnet Hill down-alternative comforter for a month or two now. Its fabric cover is made of pretty heavy cloth, and there's some sound when we turn over or throw the covers aside to get up. The sound isn't at all 'crinkly;' it's more like the sound from a clean, heavy cotton sheet, such as you might find in a good hotel. To me, it's a very luxurious, comforting sound, part of the comfortable sounds of snuggling down into the bed clothes before going to sleep.
I hope this is helpful to you.

Answer:They are very similar. The biggest differences are the shell which 18283 is Combed Cotton & 24408 is Cotton Cambric (they will feel a little different). The fill which 18283 is Primaloft and 24408 is Polyester, the sizes have a slight difference, and the ounces of fill which 24408 has a little more. Both comforters will be great for year round use.

Point Spread: -5½/-107 LA Lakers
The Los Angeles Lakers have been like night and day home and away. They've been virtually unstoppable at home, but they can't seem to carry that game on the road. Fortunately, the Lakers return home tonight to try and put an end to a 2-game losing streak with road losses to the Heat and Magic Thursday and Friday.
The Lakers are 9-1 at home this season, outscoring opponents by an average of 9.2 points/game. They are holding foes to just 84.6 points/game and 39.5 percent shooting at home. Head coach Mike Brown has certainly gotten this team to play defense at a very high level this year. That doesn't bode well for Indiana, which scores just 92.9 points/game on 41.5 percent shooting this season.
Brown is 50-28 ATS after 3 or more consecutive unders in all games he has coached. The Pacers are 1-6 ATS in their last 7 vs. Western Conference. Indiana is 1-6 ATS in their last 7 games as a road underdog of 5.0-10.5. The Pacers are 2-6 ATS in their last 8 games following a S.U. win. The favorite is 12-4 ATS in the last 14 meetings. L.A. is 6-2 ATS in their last 8 home meetings with Indiana. Bet the Lakers Sunday.

Spend a beautiful Florida day out in the clear, blue waters off Key West. On the Key West Shipwreck Snorkel and Wild Dolphin Encounter cruise, you'll spot dolphins playing and swimming along the boat, and you'll snorkel over shipwrecks and coral reefs. The spacious catamaran offers plenty of room to relax, feel the sea breeze in your hair, enjoy light snacks and drinks, and have fun on the sparkling waters of Key West.
- All taxes, fuel surcharges and service fees included
- Close encounter with wildlife
- Family friendly
- Free drinks included

Spend a day in the Florida sun, cruising through the perfect turquoise waters that surround Key West on the Echo, a spacious catamaran. You'll board the Echo at the historic Key West Sea Port, downtown at the Key West Bight in Old Key West. Walk along the Harborwalk, which goes around the water's edge and leads straight to the Echo's dock, behind Turtle Kraals restaurant.
The first stop of your Shipwreck Snorkel and Wild Dolphin Encounter cruise is the wild dolphin playground, where you'll see dolphins swimming, feeding, jumping, courting each other, playing and, if you're lucky, caring for their babies. Keep your eyes peeled over the side of the Echo – the dolphins love to swim right alongside the boat.
Then it's on to snorkeling. You'll be taken to a spot with the day's calmest, clearest conditions, and you'll receive sanitized snorkeling equipment and excellent snorkeling instructions. If the conditions are right, you'll stop at a nearby shallow-water shipwreck, which has been encrusted over the years by a coral reef. Hop in for a snorkel or swim in clear tropical water, which is home to more than 600 species of colorful fish, coral and other sea life.
After snorkeling, replenish with a tropical fruit tray, snacks, soft drinks, ice-cold beer and wine (for guests 21-and-over) during the relaxing cruise back to Key West – all complimentary!

Step 1 Use a black Sharpie® to mark the round nose pliers tool with a dot from about ¼" from largest end.
Step 2 Cut four 3" pieces of 20 ga. wire.
Step 3 About ½" from wire end, position wire on "dot" mark made on the round nose pliers tool. Bend wire around pliers, making a full circle.
Step 4 Using chain nose pliers, wrap excess wire around bottom of the circle.
Step 5 Slide beads onto wire in this order: jet lentil/silver-plated diamond/jet lentil.
Step 6 Repeat Steps 3 and 4 with end of wire.
Step 7 Repeat with remaining three wires. You should finish with four sections identical in length.

Step 9 Slide each through the silver/turquoise slider.
Step 10 At base of silver/turquoise, bend each wire to secure bead.
Step 11 Bend wires around silver/turquoise, forming the shape of
the bead. Using chain nose pliers, make 90° bend in wire.

July 2012 Interview: Baumeister
Location: St Gallen, Switzerland
Contact: SoundCloud
Let's kick this off with a little bit about you. Could you tell us a bit about yourself?
I'm a 22 year old producer and DJ from St. Gallen, Switzerland. I have lived ever since near to the Lake of Constance, a really beautiful place on earth. Music plays a prominent role in my life, although my taste has changed over the years.
You're a resident of Switzerland. Have you lived out there your whole life? How's the music scene out there?
In Switzerland, the music I make is more of something underground. There's indeed a very distinctive electronic music scene, but a big part of the music that is played here is some four-to-floor stuff like House or Minimal Techno. But if you keep your eyes open, there are a lot of great venues, where you got the chance to listen to some alternative stuff like dubstep, drum and bass, juke or experimental. In recent times, electronic music boomed in Switzerland due to the rise of producers like Skrillex, Deadmau5, and our own national ones like DJ Antoine.
Also one of the biggest electronic events in the world is located in Switzerland: the Street Parade. A must see. Not really because of the music, more because of the spirit and the fact that about one million people are celebrating electronic music, from house to drum and bass to techno and hardstyle. The place where I play sometimes my DJ-sets is called "« Palace »". It's situated in St. Gallen. It's one of my favorite spots. It's an old cinema, which is now used as a concert house / club. Regularly they arrange dubstep/experimental events, and I already had the chance to support Zomby, Bibio & Daedelus.
What encouraged you to start making your own music? Were you self-taught, or did you get any help to get you going?
I started to play guitar at the age of 10. I played for a long time and joined a rockband in my schooltime at the age of 16. Then later I started to listen to Hip-Hop and I was always fascinated by the beats there. After two years, at the age of 18, I more and more listened to electronic music. First it was a switch from Hip-Hop to Trip-Hop. As I discovered Massive Attack I was totally impressed by the feeling and the dubby elements in their music. I got more and more addicted to electronic music. In the same year I went to my first party in a club, I was fascinated by the feeling: forgetting everything negative, just you, the music and some other freaks. That was the moment when I realized that I won't get enough of this feeling and that I want to do this kind of music myself.
I started with GarageBand on my macbook. This is now about three years ago.
For a short time I used FL Studio but then a friend showed me ableton live and I fell in love with it.
The most things are self-taught but I get sometimes tips from a friend.
Which musicians would you say had the biggest impact on your work?
I think the musicians, who had the biggest impact on my work are: Machinedrum, Sepalcure, Synkro, Om Unit, Apparat, Massive Attack, Modeselektor, Mala, Martyn.
Are you currently involved in any production communities/scenes? Any plans to make a living off of music production, or is this something you would rather do on your time off work?
At the moment I'm planning to release an EP in September / October.
I have no definitive plans to live on my music. I just want to spend as much time as possible with it. When I see people dancing to my sound when I'm behind the decks, that's one of the best things for me. For sure, I would like to earn one's living with music, but as a matter of fact it's not that easy. But until then I enjoy what I got and keep working on hard.
We appreciate the time. Thanks for the insights and the wonderful mix. We wish you best of luck with your work, and eagerly look forward to your future releases.

According to news reports, a new project—backed by a $2.5 million grant from the taxpayer-funded National Science Foundation—will "research how children acquire the concepts of biological evolution and look at new ways to engage children in exploring the topic." The result of this study will be a "traveling exhibition on evolution geared to children and their parents."1
The project is yet another step to further the evolutionary indoctrination children go through in public schools and in the public arena. It's not enough, it seems, to present the theory of evolution in junior high and high school science classes; rather, it must be drilled into the minds of students as young as five.
This study only gives more reason for Christian parents to be involved in their children's education and to point them to the truth of God's Word from an early age.

Is he "liberty or death", or is he a traitor?
His situation is kind of hinky. If he went through the appropriate channels he would have been silenced, maybe for good. He should have brought it to a member of the senate or house who is a staunch constitutionalist. Maybe Paul or Coburn or even yackity yak Lindsey Graham. I voted both.
I voted "I don't know."
More and more these days, I feel like some sort of mushroom ...

Lindsay Lohan Suing E*Trade Over Super Bowl Adby Free Britney at .
Lindsay Lohan is suing for $100 million from E*TRADE, believing that the "milkaholic" baby featured in their Super Bowl commercial was modeled after her.
The ad features a baby named Lindsay, accused of being the other woman in a baby love triangle. We'd love to have been in the writers' room for this one.
At one point, the "girlfriend" baby demands to know whether or not the main baby was out doing some partying with "that milk-a-holic Lindsay" last night.
A third baby pops into frame - supposedly "Lindsay" - and delivers the line "Milk-a-what?" Totally her. Anything "-holic" is a jab at Lohan, without a doubt.
Naturally, Linds feels this "subliminal message" is defamatory.
In response, the alleged actress has filed a lawsuit in Nassau County, N.Y., Supreme Court, claiming E*TRADE violated her rights by using her "name and characterization" in business without paying her or getting her approval.
Perhaps Lindsay should start an E*TRADE account, because there are other ways of getting paid than frivolous lawsuits (her surname is never spoken in the ad).
Lohan's lawyer, Stephanie Ovadia, says that doesn't matter, under the reasoning: "Do you know the name Oprah? You know the name Madonna? Same thing."
Regarding the "milkaholic" reference, Ovadia would not address it directly, except to say that "If you look at the commercial as a whole, it's Lindsay Lohan."
Is it really, though? You be the judge:

What would happen if there is a politician who has the same name as her? Everyone knows that the politician has to run commercials to get elected, re-elected or to get their point of view across. So will the coke-head skank be suing them also. Because she doesn't agree with their political ideology and she thinks people would be confusing her and the politicians.
Can this woman become anymore self absorbed than she already was? Does she think that she owns the name Lindsey? There were comparisons in the story to using Madonna and Oprah, but there is no comparison! There are a million Lindsey's out there! And what is this about likeness? A baby is supposed to prove that it was her likeness? Give me a break! She's an idiot that is obviously getting desperate for money! And what lawyer would get behind something as stupid as this? She is only making herself look more stupid than we already know she is! Go play with yourself Lindsey, because no one wants to play with you anymore!
Wow. I have now. Officially. Completely. Without a doubt. Lost the last .000000001% of respect I had for her. How self-absorbed can you be? Really? All the "Lindseys" in my neighborhood should sue too. Lindsay Lohan is nothing but a used-to-be childhood star, who became a train wreck, and really ya'll should move on from her. I'd rather hear about the Octo-freak at this point.
